[PATCH 1/2] sched/core: Preserve WF_RQ_SELECTED across queued wakeups
From: Kuba Piecuch
Date: Fri Oct 23 2026 - 10:54:55 EST
ENQUEUE_RQ_SELECTED tells a sched_class that ->select_task_rq() was
called for a task wakeup. sched_ext exposes this flag to BPF schedulers
as SCX_ENQ_CPU_SELECTED. However, the flag is lost for queued wakeups,
which a BPF scheduler can opt into with SCX_OPS_ALLOW_QUEUED_WAKEUP.
This also results in undercounting SCX_EV_SELECT_CPU_FALLBACK events.
Preserve WF_RQ_SELECTED for queued wakeups in the same way WF_MIGRATED
is. This way, ttwu_activate() receives WF_RQ_SELECTED for queued wakeups
and passes ENQUEUE_RQ_SELECTED to activate_task().
Fixes: 3539c6411a7c ("sched_ext: Implement SCX_OPS_ALLOW_QUEUED_WAKEUP")
